(I say this not as a supporter, but as a sufferer of the same allergies). He had to get a Portie. The odds of finding a Portie in a Shelter? Probably low. (If you find one, lemme know.) I think he split the difference. It's coming with a donation to a local D.C. Shelter (whom I'm sure won't turn down the cash or the publicity). It's not the optimum solution, but its the best he can do. (A metaphor for the trying times we're in.); April 15, 2009 at 11:11 AM
